[looking at a tourist's map of Mt. Neverrest] This map isn't accurate at all! Mountain goats aren't native to this region, and why is the sun wearing sunglasses? Is he looking at another brighter sun?
Don't pay any attention to these tourists, my boy. Nothing not tchotchkes, and cheese puffs. We are real explorers!
LouieWho?
Only the greatest mountaineer of the 20th century! Legend has it that Mallardy made it farther up the mountain than anyone, but was lost, trying to rescue an incompetent fellow climber, famously known as the Neverrest Ninny.
Louie
[reading a plaque] "George Mallardy. He died as he lived. Freezing."
Ah, stop your hatering. That's just a load of nonsense to sell T-shirts to tourists. We're gonna outdo that quitter Mallardy by making it to the top!
Louie
You realize there's a difference between quitting, and dying, right?
Alright, true explorers! Now this mountain is gonna throw everything she's got at us.
Louie
But it'll be worth it when we find the treasure of Mt. Neverrest.
There is no treasure of Mt. Neverrest.
Louie
.... Nope! Louie out! Already gone. Have fun!
ZZeus
Ithaquack was the secret vacation spot for gods and heroes, and I was the God of Hospitality, the King of the Beach. Everyone loved me. Then Scrooge showed up, defeated the unkillable Gorgon, found the lost treasure of Troy, was really good at building sand castles, bah!
Louie
Seems pretty fun.
ZZeus
No, it twasn't! Scrooge showed up like he was so cool and ruined it!
Ugh, jengs. Leave it to an immortal to whine about the good old days.
[after Huey and Louie beat Storkules at the first trial]
Well done, nephews of Donald! What ingenuity! From henceforth, you shall be known as Hubert, Tamer of Winds, and Llewellyn, Fighter of Storms!
Louie
Please do not say my real name out loud.
Get excited, kids! Golf is in our blood! Your ancestor, "Black Donald" McDuck, actually invented the sport. Of course he lost so badly that the ensuing temper tantrums caused King James to ban golf across all of Scotland.
Louie
And we're... proud of that in some way?
I don't know, man. Go-karts? Hitting things really hard with sticks? Not being grounded for said hitting? Sounds kind of awesome!
Louie
It's a sport where you try not to score points to make it end sooner. Hard pass.
Trust me, you'll love it.
Alright, boy. How would your uncle play this hole?
Louie
[clearly uninterested] Uh, just- why don't you hit the ball in the hole? I guess.
Hit the ball... in the hole? Of course! I've been overthinking it this entire time! [drives the ball] Holy haggis! It stayed on the course! It went forward! I'm not on fire! That might be the best shot I've ever taken!
Hey, guys! Every year I brush up on my survivor skills on a secret island! [Beakley clears her throat] I-I mean, a regular island where young warriors definitely don't combat the forces of nature and each other. You know, it's girl stuff.
[quacking in panic] I GOTTA GO! [gets into his car and drives off]
Why is everyone running off?
[sighs] You would figure it out sooner or later. [whispers] Today is Mr. McDuck's birthday.
[The triplets exclaim in surprise]
Okay, people, we are in crisis party planning mode! Louie, you start a guest list. Dewey…
[interrupting] Absolutely not. Mr. McDuck has a strict no-birthday-party rule. He hates the reminder that he's…
Louie
Literally the oldest person he knows?
[Dewey bursts out, laughing, and Huey cracks a smile]
But our most epic relative deserves the most epic party ever!
Oh, I don't know. He hasn't had a good one since before his old butler, Duckworth died.
Like this stuffy old guy could beat the party I threw for the Junior Woodchuck Party Planning Committee. It was both work and play.
[walking out the door] Fine. Don't say I didn't warn you.
[catching up] If I don't come back, tell my story!
Nah, he's gonna love it! Huey's time to shine!
Staff meeting! [drags his brothers and closes the curtains]
Louie
I don't think Scrooge wants a party.
That's crazy! There've been a few bumps, but he'll come around. Louie, no schmoozing. Just serve punch. Dewey. Dewey. [sighs] DJ Daft Duck? Here's a list of pre-approved songs with a 90% enjoyment rating. Play these.
Louie
Listen, I know planning is your thing, but you're cramping our style. You gotta relax and just ride the party wave.
A party is a celebration of a life, bringing people together to let the guest of honor know how much they're loved. Uncle Scrooge has done so much for us! This is our chance to do something for him!
Louie
By forcing him to have fun at a party that he doesn't want to be at?
We gotta solve the mystery and find Scrooge so he can experience the true joy of a flawless birthday party.
Louie
And you know, not possibly die?
Yes, of course, and that, but if we succeed and have a good time doing it, Scrooge may have experienced the most amazing party of all time!
Louie
Shouldn't we call somebody?
But who can you call when everyone is a suspect? Come on, boys, the party game is afoot!
Louie
Oh, I hate this already.
DDewey (DJ Daft Duck)
Oh yeaaah!
Louie
You can't get that helmet off, can you?
DDewey (DJ Daft Duck)
Oh nooo!
BABlack Arts Beagle
Behold, my abyss box. May it rest in pieces. Someone opened it the moment before Scrooge disappeared!
Someone who hates Scrooge more than anyone.
EEveryone
Flintheart Glomgold!
Hey, my rich brother from another mother!
Wait. How did you know it was me?
Louie
It's always you.
And it always will be! [evil laugh]
I should've listened to Uncle Scrooge when he said, [imitating Scrooge] "Spit on me spats, I hate parties." But I just had to do it.
Louie
[whispering] And right now you have to stop talking.
I was trying to throw the best party, but wound up with the worst party! Or… was it the best party for someone who hates parties? That's it! I know where Scrooge is!
Louie
Stop yelling!
[as the money shark swims around them; reading from his guidebook] Did you know that sharks never run out of teeth? They have the most powerful jaws on the planet. On average, there are about 100 shark attacks a year.
Louie
Dude, now is not the time!
Facts comfort me when I'm nervous!
[as they attend a Glomgold event at the museum] So what are we doing here anyway?
As upstanding citizens of note, it's our responsibility to support Duckburg's cultural institutions. [approaches the buffet] And these cocktail weenies are on Glomgold's dollar.
Louie
Aren't you rich? Why do you need free food?
I didn't get rich by wasting money. I got rich by besting my enemies. Stock up, lads!
